v3 Crashing Problem
|
Since upgrading to VIP, I've noticed that v3 is rather unstable on my computer, and tends to crash when too many things are going on.
For example, the last crash occured under the following circumstances:
-I was on Valikorlia, 29 players were on. There were about 3 mass messages and
one private message flashing in the playerlist.
-I opened the 2.x version of Graal to edit a level.
-iTunes was running, playing an mp3.
-Trillian (A chat program) was running, with no active IM windows open.
I used to be able to run the same programs, doing the same things, without any
problems when I was using the 2.x versions.
As for what happened, I was simply editing a level (not through RC or anything) when v3 froze and then proceeded to cause my computer to lock up.
My computer's stats are as follows:
Sony Vaio PCV-RX550
Windows XP Home Edition
1.5 GHZ Intel Pentium 4
768 Ram.
Nvidia Geforce4
With the default v3 settings.
Note: This isn't the first time this has happened. Each time it freezes I am running similar programs, yet I am not always running the 2.x version too.
Is this due to v3 being beta and bugs are still not all worked out?
Or is there some option I can select to ensure better performance? |
